• Weakness

  FUNCTIONAL WEAKNESS Functional weakness is weakness of an arm or leg due to the nervous system not working properly. People with functional weakness experience symptoms of limb weakness which can be disabling and frightening. [fndhope.org]

  Paralysis or the suffix “-plegia” indicates weakness so severe that a muscle cannot be contracted at all, whereas paresis refers to less severe weakness. [accessmedicine.mhmedical.com]

• Quadriplegia

  Quadriplegia Quadriplegia or tetraplegia is where the individual is paralysed below the neck. This affects arms, legs as well as many bodily functions. Like with paraplegia, a SCI is the most common cause of paraplegia. [cyclonemobility.com]

  Quadriplegia Quadriplegia, which is often referred to as tetraplegia, is paralysis below the neck. All four limbs, as well as the torso, are typically affected. [spinalcord.com]

  Although there are many different types of paralysis, these can be broadly categorised into five main types: monoplegia, hemiplegia, paraplegia and quadriplegia. Monoplegia Monoplegia is where one area of the body is paralysed. [cyclonemobility.com]

  Monoplegia Monoplegia is paralysis of a single area of the body, most typically one limb. People with monoplegia typically retain control over the rest of their body, but cannot move or feel sensations in the affected limb. [spinalcord.com]

  If the patient experiences paralysis in one limb, he or she has monoplegia. Sometimes monoplegia is a temporary condition after a stroke or brain injury. Loss of movement and feeling in the limbs on only one side of the body is hemiplegia. [knappandroberts.com]

  Depending on the extent of paralysis, one speaks of monoplegia (paralysis of only one limb), paraplegia (paralysis of the upper or lower limbs), tetraplegia (paralysis of all limbs) or hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body). [ottobock.com.au]
